Detector Parameters

To configure a detector, select the appropriate radio button in the Select Detector window and then set the parameters in the
Detector Parameters and Image windows. Each detector is configured independently. (Detector parameter configurations can be
copied into other detector parameters using the Copy command, see page 24.)

Parameter

Description

Detector Type

There are 3 (

4) different methods of evaluation:

Pattern Matching (page 35)
Contrast (page 36)
Brightness (page 35)

Contour Matching (page 37)

These detector types are described in detail starting on page 35.
Each of the 10 detectors can have a different detector type (e.g.
Detector 1 = Pattern Match, Detector 2 = Contrast, etc.). This is
true even if the detectors are logically linked or grouped together.

Illumination

Internal On

 Internal lighting is on for image exposure. Trigger

for external lighting is generated.
Internal Off

 Internal lighting is off for image exposure. Trigger

for external lighting is generated.
External Constant

 Internal lighting is off for image exposure.

External lighting trigger is on constantly while the sensor is in Run
mode (or the Live Display in the Image window is selected during
configuration), i.e., the external light is always on; it does not
strobe with each image exposure. Use this setting to help reduce
annoyance from constantly strobing light.

Resolution/Speed

Changes the resolution and therefore also the speed
Normal/Faster
Fine/Average
Rough/Fastest
Use this setting to improve cycle time

Zoom

Zoom function: On/Off (digital zoom 2:1)
